About: I have taken care of dogs of all sizes since I was a little kid. I have experience caring for elderly and sick dogs who require oral medication, assistance walking, other medications, and 24/7 care (overnight potty breaks, overnight feedings, etc). I have 1 dog currently but have had as many as 3 dogs living in my house at once. I am home/remote full-time, so I am available to give your pet around the clock attention, care, and (most importantly) cuddles! I am away from my home for errands for 3 hours at a time at most (during the daytime, daily) and have tons of both cat and dog toys at home to keep your pet entertained while I am away. I am also available for walks all day, and have a fenced-in yard for additional play time. I have a fenced-in yard with a large backyard to accommodate all the zoomies at all times of the day. I also have a crate if needed for your pet. I have 1 dog and 4 cats that are all pet-friendly and will keep your fur babies entertained all day long. I allow pets on all furniture, and love to spend my day surrounded by my animals. I have lots of time and attention and LOVE to spoil your babies with!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for most of my life and currently have two dogs of my own. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and routine, and I strive to make each pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved. As an active person who enjoys walking and being outdoors, I can provide energetic walks for dogs who need exercise while also giving gentle attention to senior dogs who prefer a slower pace. I’m dependable, communicative, and will treat your pets like they’re part of my own family. I know how important peace of mind is when leaving your pet with someone else, and I’ll provide updates and photos so you know they’re in great hands. I’m a stay-at-home mom of two school-aged children and am looking for flexible work that allows me to care for pets during school hours. My schedule is open on weekdays while my children are in school, and for certain walks or drop-in visits, my kids may accompany me when appropriate. I’m reliable, active, and love spending time outdoors with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. As a lifelong dog owner, I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I currently have two friendly dogs of my own and treat every pet as if they were part of my family. I follow owners' instructions carefully, prioritize safety on walks and during visits, and provide regular updates with photos for peace of mind. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you're away.

About: I have dogs all my life, and adore animals. I am truly happier around animals, and keeping them company and safe while having fun as well. I am available on the weekends to take care of your pup and make sure they have the best time while their parents have a mini vacay. I have a big fenced yard where your pup is able to run around freely, and a cute little cute friendly Yorkie to keep your pup company.

About: My husband and I both grew up with several dogs in our homes as children, and while we have no children of our own, our fur baby is a ten month old Shih-Poo, whose name is "Reesie". Reesie is the sweetest boy, who loves to cuddle, play, and run outside in the dog park! I'm currently a stay at home fur mom, and typically take our pup for walks every few hours! My husband and I take him to a park several nights a week after dinner to allow him time to exercise and play! There is a fenced in dog park here at our apartment complex, and we are willing to adapt to your pup's needs if a crate is necessary.

About: I grew up in a family of animal lovers, especially dogs, and from an early age I learned how to care for them with attention, patience, and affection. Being around animals has always been a natural and important part of my life. I am someone homeowners can trust to respect their space, follow instructions carefully, and communicate clearly when needed. I will treat your home and your pet (or feathered friend!) with the same attention, respect, and affection I would give my own. I currently work from home part time as an online teacher and have a pretty flexible schedule so that allows me to be very present, keep pets company, take them for walks and make sure they get all the TLC they need. Caring for animals and creating a peaceful, well-kept home genuinely fulfills me. Pets make any place feel like home, and spending time with them — whether walking, playing, cuddling, or simply keeping them company — is something that brings me a lot of joy. My lifestyle is naturally calm and home-oriented, so I truly enjoy quiet routines and spending time at home. As a self-employed English teacher working remotely, I have the flexibility to give pets plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day. I’m a responsible, trustworthy, and clean person who takes looking after someone else’s home seriously. I’m organized, respectful and a non-smoker. My goal is always to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable, and that you return to a happy and welcoming home. Clear communication is very important to me, and I’m happy to send updates and photos as often as you prefer, so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away.

About: I've cared for dogs almost all of my life. As a latchkey kid, my first job was to care for my two sweet dogs when I got home. I'm skilled in caring for senior dogs who need extra patience and love. ❤️ I'm available in the mornings to early afternoons. I work part-time in the evenings most nights. I am as flexible as my job schedule allows me to be! Sending photo and video updates are my favorite, so you can always see your pets! I currently live in a pet free household with a fenced in yard. I do not smoke. I'm a thorough cleaner if needed.

About: Hi! I’m Ella, and caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life. I currently work at a small business pet food and grooming store, where I spend my days with dogs and assisting pet owners with their pets’ needs. Being around animals every day has taught me how important patience, attention, and love are when it comes to providing great care. I also have two dogs of my own, so I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I’ve regularly walked and looked after dogs for friends and family, giving me experience with pets of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, playtime, or just someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry best friend! I’m currently working part-time so I have a flexible schedule and will always do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine.

I provide all pet care in my clients’ homes, where your pet is most comfortable and can stick to their normal routine. I’ll carefully follow all feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions while making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I’ll also treat your home with the utmost respect by keeping it clean, secure, and exactly as you left it. You’ll receive regular updates and photos so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away.

About: With over six years of hands-on pet care experience, I’ve worked for three pet sitting companies, the MCSPCA, and at the same kennel twice. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and countless other animals—big and small—with love, patience, and reliability. Growing up surrounded by animals shaped my deep passion for their well-being, and I’m committed to treating every pet like family. 💞🐾 Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine, as I currently work part-time and have a flexible schedule. That means I have plenty of time and energy to dedicate to your pet. I'm available for dog walking and drop-in visits during the week and weekends, and I’m happy to help with holiday or last-minute bookings. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely love, so this never feels like “work” to me—it’s something I look forward to every day!! :) I grew up with dogs and have been surrounded by animals for most of my life, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pet. While I don’t offer in-home boarding, I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. I always follow instructions carefully, prioritize safety, and strive to make every visit calm, fun, and stress-free. Whether it’s a big, energetic pup or a shy senior cat, I have experience with pets of all shapes, sizes, and personalities ♥︎

Lauren was absolutely wonderful and took such great care of my cat while I was away on vacation. She sent me updates and pictures every visit and was so patient with my shy kitty who spent her first few visits hiding. They ultimately became best buds which made me feel so much better about being away. I would definitely recommend Lauren and would definitely have her again!

About: I've been an animal lover my whole life and treat every pet as if they were my own. I had the time of my life with my sweet girl, who crossed the Rainbow Bridge last year. She filled my life with love, laughter, and unforgettable memories, and caring for her was one of the greatest privileges of my life. As a special education teacher, I'm patient, dependable, and attentive to each pet's unique personality and needs. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, or relaxing with company, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. I'll follow their routine closely and keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing they're in caring hands. 🐾❤️ Pet care fits very well into my routine, especially since I’m currently off for the summer. This gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, and quality time with pets. During the school year, I have a structured schedule as a special education teacher, which still allows me to be available in the mornings, afternoons, evenings, and on weekends. I’m organized and reliable, and I make sure each pet gets consistent care, attention, and time without feeling rushed. I care for every pet like they’re my own and always focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. In a client’s home, I stick closely to your pet’s normal routine so they feel secure in their familiar environment. I pay close attention to details like feeding instructions, walks, medications, and any special needs. Safety is always my top priority, I make sure doors are secure, pets are properly leashed outside, and they’re never left unattended during visits. I also treat your home with respect and care, leaving everything clean and just as I found it. My goal is to build trust through reliability, communication, and genuine love for animals so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away. 🐾

Dominique came in twice a day every day to watch and care for my dogs while I was traveling abroad. She updated me daily with pictures and let me know how my dogs were doing. I felt very much at ease knowing that she was taking care of them and letting me know along the way if there were any problems. I highly recommend her to care for your dogs and I will definitely be booking her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Keyport on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 24,155 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Keyport. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Keyport stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Keyport choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Keyport with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Keyport. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
